Yes. Nexus devices do not have locked bootloaders so the process is pretty simple.
Not having owned a Nexus device before, how soon do the custom ROM's come in? Are the major/popular ones released immediately?

With this device? Very soon. Google release AOSP source, so dev can be started straight away. At first you will see slightly modified AOSP roms, but kernels and other custom roms will be out very quickly.
Shouldn't it be fastboot OEM unlock then adb push the root files?

Good news for all of you R800x users. Sony Mobile has finally added MEID support for unlocking your phone through their website (this could apply to other phones that use MEID as well).
I just went through the instructions on the Sony's website for getting the unlock code and then followed Ridder's guide and the install ran without any trouble (I'm not entirely sure if his process will work with other roms, can someone confirm this?)
I'm now off Verizon's horrible rom and running CM9 .
Anyways I just wanted to let people know, enjoy
*If youre having trouble with flashtool, try doing it using using the methods discussed in the links I provided above (Sony Instructions and Ridder). Alsomake sure you have Sony's Fastboot drivers installed.
Awesome I guess, can anyone confirm this for Locked R800i models? Mine is a factory unlocked, I'm just curious if Sony decided to provide a free unlock for everyone since they abandoned us on Gingerbread.

Its worth a try. Follow the steps on the unlockbootloader link I gave above, it tells you how to check if you can unlock, and what else needs to be done.
Great news!

Yea It worked finally on CM 9!
Although my phones bootloader was unlocked over a year ago via the unlock code (thank you ashergrey) I have embedded a screenshot of what I see if I follow the prompts to unlock my phones BL, even though it is....
I just went ahead and listed my phones MEID # in the sony website and 3 seconds later had this in my email inbox.
See attachment.
As I am already unlocked it appears that Sony really is now unlocking VZ Xplays. My contract ends in 2 months and I am thinking of just getting an AT&T XP and unlocking that, can anyone with a AT&T XP see if it will work for them? That would be fantastic news if it will unlock AT&Ts as well.
Yay!

I cannot as my phone is factory unlocked, and even if I did relock my bootloader it isn't network locked so I could have always unlocked it,
My Att play still has a locked bootloader and apparently my MEID is 1 number too long. Eh, it was worth a try.

This just means R800x users will not have to pay for bootloader unlocks anymore, it doesn't effect cdma development because we have already been working with unlocked bootloaders for over a year

OK man, I' ll add that option on v1.1. Thanks for the suggestion .
Can this also remove the "Tampered" message from my unlocked but not S-off HTC One?
so basically, just delete the message in HBoot screen?

It should also do that.

How it works ?
For bootloader unlock, it deletes encrypted bootloader flag from the mmcblk0p3 file. Then, it uses ADB to enter "HTCU" command to unlock bootloader normally. That means it may work on other HTC devices but it is not tested on other HTC devices.
For deleting the TAMPERED text, it changes counter flag to x00. Usally when you unlock bootloader or flash anything with Fastboot, counter flag changes itself to x01 and so on.
And note that you need S-OFF for deleting TAMPERED text option.

And one more thing: in this way, we can reset knox ( for samsung devices) flash counter with this way.
OK thanks do I need a PC for this or can this be done on phone itself?

After clicking the Unlock booterloader button and then the ok button, I see a command prompt with [email protected]:/ $ but nothing else happens. Should I be doing something?
Really useful. Could you also get it to add root, and maybe add a relock option also? I wish this was about before I used htcdev.
is it that simple?is it safe?
suggestion
try to insert option to change cid in supercid
or of any other choice and name after s-off tools all in one

No evidence either way.
For me it's a bit sparse on detail, prerequisites etc.

I've just downloaded this guys and got this through Norton: WS.Reputation is a risk and has been removed. False positive or something more sinister??
Updated:
February 15, 2012 3:15:47 PM
Type:
Other
Risk Impact:
High
Systems Affected:
Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows NT, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000
Behavior
WS.Reputation.1 is a detection for files that have a low reputation score based on analyzing data from Symantec’s community of users and therefore are likely to be security risks. Detections of this type are based on Symantec’s reputation-based security technology. Because this detection is based on a reputation score, it does not represent a specific class of threat like adware or spyware, but instead applies to all threat categories.
The reputation-based system uses "the wisdom of crowds" (Symantec’s tens of millions of end users) connected to cloud-based intelligence to compute a reputation score for an application, and in the process identify malicious software in an entirely new way beyond traditional signatures and behavior-based detection techniques.

I am using Purity 4.4 + Matrix 11.5 right now.
Now my question is how do you guys update your respective ROMs instead of flashing newer versions through recovery? I tried GooManager but it didn't work for me :-|
You should ask in thread about your rom. If devs do not do OTA update you must use recovery to update rom
I think most use recovery
Sent from my Nexus 4
Download updated ROM zip file and flash through recovery (TWRP for myself).

Well being a new member, I am not actually allowed to ask in ROM threads, that's why I asked here.

It's not hard but sometimes you get too lazy
Simple. Set up VM environment there are simple walkthrough video and once your set up you can pull straight out of the devs or any branch. I do my own when I feel I need to add a feature I do. There are a major variety of bases to choose from. Its much easier than many think. In my opinion its safer as I know exactly what I'm getting. Not to mention an addiction lay within too. Lol Have fun bro. Welcome to the machine. Many new devs are so stoked when the first ROM they build is complete they can't stop. Lol peace.

I do know stuff about Android development but I am too scared to try that kind of stuff. Can you link me to those tutorials or videos?
Noob friendly please. I remember on previous releases of android people were able to upgrade early without waiting for the ota. It would wipe their system granted, but I'm willing to do that.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Ah so we can't until they release it?
As far as I'm informed you could build it on your own, using the released sdk.
